You're My Boy, Blue

did a little maintenance on Sunday while i was waiting for some varnish to dry.  currently sitting at 96k miles, plugs aren't due until 105k but close enough.

originals coming out and OEM Densos going back in for another 100k miles


scene of the crime.  getting better at pulling the cowl/lower windshield trim, which is a must due to the cab-forward design.  as others have told me it really does open up the whole back of the bay nicely.  just a PITA.


here's the originals after about 8 years of service.  i'm not a plug reading expert but i think they're fine...the car certainly drives fine.  i putz around town a lot so i'm not surprised the ground straps are a bit ash colored from a lean burn.  we also have 10-15% ethanol content in our gas around here which i've heard will add a white deposit.  otherwise the base color and insulator color look about right.  i looked at some S2000 plugs as well and they seem to come out the same.

the gaps were all basically factory, pretty amazing and goes to show what a quality iridium plug will endure.  my guess is i'll never touch the plugs again unless its a tuning necessity for later mods.
